About Me
I’m Dr. Vishnu Priya Pulipati — a board-certified Endocrinologist and Lipidologist practicing in Oklahoma with a special focus on managing complex lipid disorders. My path has been shaped by a deep commitment to both clinical excellence and education. I was honored with multiple academic awards, including Gold Medals and Best Outgoing Student of the Batch. I’ve co-authored the 2025 AACE Dyslipidemia Guideline, served as Vice Chair of the AACE Lipids & Cardiovascular Health Disease State Network, and contributed to multiple peer-reviewed publications and book chapters in clinical lipidology. I also speak frequently at national meetings and mentor the next generation of physicians.
